Driver Handbook
At Fleet Service GB, we deliver fleet management solutions which prioritise safety, compliance, and efficiency. A key component of our service is the Driver Handbook, available through the Achieve Software Hub (developed in-house and the Achieve Driver App). This digital resource equips drivers with essential knowledge, to ensure company vehicles are operated safely and in line with current legislation.
Achieve Fleet Management Software Hub and Driver Mobile App: Digital Access
Our Driver Handbook, accessible through the Achieve Software Hub and the Achieve Driver App, offers unrivalled convenience, therefore allowing drivers to quickly reference important guidelines, policies, and procedures in real time. Whether in the office or on the road, this digital format ensures critical information is always at their fingertips, hence supporting effective fleet driver management.
Driver Handbook Key Features:
Interactive eLearning: The handbook seamlessly links directly to our interactive eLearning modules as well as an extensive learning library. Furthermore, this integration enables drivers to engage with key topics such as defensive driving (where drivers consciously reduce the dangers associated with driving), vehicle maintenance, and current legislation. Consequently, they can benefit from dynamic and engaging training, which is essential for effective fleet risk management.

Regular Updates: In order to ensure compliance and safety, our Driver Handbook is continually updated to reflect the latest legislation and industry best practices.
